Jeezuz, I'm not trying to colour music. I'm not throwing bricks at the Israelis, I've not put sanctions on the Iraqis, I've not dammed up the Euphrates... I don't hurt anybody... Sh*t, blacks don't have to sit at the back of the bus anymore!!!! What's this coloured politics you're talking about? Tell me, I'd like to know. The governments sh*t on everyone unless you're loaded. They only love money... that's that... No colour involved there... what's up? Do you wanna make people angry or something? Someone'll get booted for this kinda stuff... l8r, Nick (Dj Pacific:) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
